A deep Ordovician carbonate in the western Tarim the most important exploration target, but it is difficult to explore due to its depth and extensive fractures, cavities and caverns. In this paper, we come up with a method to more accurately model this type of reservoir. We apply a quantitative design of the acquisition geometry to obtain a higher S/N ratio and resolution using wave equation forward modeling based on the properties of the reservoir. In order to satisfy the interpretation of fracture‐cavity type reservoir, we apply a wider azimuth survey. Finally, we show the high accuracy 3D exploration result that is achieved by using the new method in the northern Tarim basin area.Permalink: https://doi.org/10.1190/1.3513164FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts 2010ISSN (print):1052-3812 ISSN (online):1949-4645Copyright: 2010 Pages: 4453 publication data© 2010 Copyright © 2010 Society of Exploration GeophysicistsPublisher:Society of Exploration Geophysicists HistoryPublished: 21 Oct 2010 CITATION INFORMATION Wang Yanfeng, Yan Feng, Wang Naijian, Gao Guocheng, and Zhang Xiangquan, (2010), "Technique of high accuracy 3D seismic exploration for fracture‐cavity type reservoirs," SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts : 167-171. https://doi.org/10.1190/1.3513164 Plain-Language Summary PDF DownloadLoading ...
